Benjamin Franklin — Autobiography & The Way to Wealth
A knowledge base devoted to Benjamin Franklin through two key works: his
Autobiography and The Way to Wealth (a digest of Poor Richard's maxims).
Every claim is grounded in a verbatim quote from these sources.
Covers the system of 13 virtues as practical skills, Franklin's revolutionary method
of self-improvement through experiment (the virtue chart, daily review, the day's
schedule), civic projects (the Junto, the first library), Poor Richard's philosophy
of time, money and work, and his treatment of honesty and modesty as working
strategies rather than convictions.
